#BlogElul 2018. Day 11 Trust

You can’t go around not trusting

Some folks don’t trust the footing

they stand on— calling it a slippery slope

Some folks think the world is out

to cause them trouble

Other folks got burned bad

by not being loved right

so they are slow to offer trust

Other folks were loved from the start

They call that unconditional love

They rested in that kind of love

Some folks hold trust in their pocket

and dole it out like crumbs

Now God’s different 

you can trust that her word is good

and God’s willing to turn the page
